I work as a remote employee to my Boston based company in FL. I pay taxes to Florida and not MA. This was a recent change. However, my HR department failed to make the change in payroll causing my state taxes to be sent to MA when they should have been in my direct deposit. Their response is "you will get the overpayment back when you file your MA state tax return".

I doubt this is a legal issue, but... I give a free loan to MA because my company screwed up?

DISREGARD: get the right people on the phone and amazing things happen.
